Sabudan Cutlets are pan fried patties made with tapioca pearls, potato, peanuts and green chili.
Delicious and tasty dish which can be enjoyed for breakfast and snack.
These sabudana tikki are popularly made during fasting season like Maha Shivratri, Navratri and Ekadashi.
Making sabudan cutlet is very easy, we just need to make sure the sabudan are soaked properly. The preparation to make these tikkis is very similar to sabudan vada , but these pan fried tikkis are healthier than the fried vada.
These sabudan cutlets are high in carbs and are quite filling. Serve these sago cutlet with masala chai, chutney or tomato ketchup.

Tips for making tasty Sabudana Cutlets-
- Rinse the sabudana in a colander till the water runs clear and soak them in water in the same level as sabudan is.
- Soak for atleast 5 hours or overnight if you plan to use them in the morning.
- After the soaking time, press the sabudan. If they mash easily then sabudan is ready to be cooked. But if its still hard in the centre, you want to sprinkle some more water and soak for an extra hour.
- Depending on the quality of the sabudan, the soaking time varies significantly.
- Potato helps in binding the cutlet. You can pressure cook them or cook directly on the stove top. Let the potato cool, before adding. This will help us to bind the dough properly.
